"Nonmagnetic and Magnetic Quantum Dots" ed. by Vasilios N. Stavrou

This volume is dedicated to nonmagnetic and magnetic quantum dots and their applications. Methods to produce quantum dots, synthesis techniques of colloidal quantum dots, and applications on sensors and biology, among others, applications of magnetic quantum dots in sensors, biology, and medicine are included in this section.

The book is divided into two sections.
In Section 1, the chapters are related to nonmagnetic quantum dots and their applications. More specifically, exact models and numerical methods have been presented to describe the analytical solution of the carrier wave functions, the quantum mechanical aspects of quantum dots, and the comparison of the latter to experimental data.
In Section 2, a few topics of magnetic quantum dots and their applications are presented. The section starts with a theoretical model to describe the magnetization dynamics in magnetic quantum dot array and the description of dilute magnetic semiconducting quantum dots and their applications.
